Difficile non farsi conquistare dalla bizzarria, dallo stile artistico, dalla fitta narrazione e dal sottofondo investigativo di Master Detective Archives: Rain Code, gioco sicuramente non per tutti (come non lo erano i Danganronpa) ma dotato di una tale carica destabilizzante e di un approccio spesso e volentieri "fuori di testa" che non gli si può non voler bene. Tra visual novel, approccio deduttivo in stile Phoenix Wright e avventura investigativa, questa nuova IP non poteva che essere concepita dai creatori di Danganronpa, ma c’è anche molto di Persona 5 (soprattutto a livello stilistico) e, nonostante una certa "pedanteria" di fondo nelle sezioni del Labirinto del mistero e un’esplorazione che non ha mantenuto del tutto quanto promesso, non posso che premiare Master Detective Archives: Rain Code come uno dei titoli più bizzarri e originali sperimentati quest’anno.

Les joueurs qui ont eu la chance de faire Ghost Trick : Détective Fantôme sur son support d'origine avaient déjà connaissance de ses nombreuses qualités. Il est désormais l'heure de s'adresser à un public bien plus large, par le biais d'un remaster qui parvient à conserver l'essence du jeu d'origine, tout en y apportant une petite touche de modernité tout à fait cohérente. Fort d'une intrigue captivante, le jeu de Shu Takumi mérite qu'on s'attarde sur son cas, laissant pour seul regret celui de ne jamais avoir eu droit à une suite.

Dopo il triplo exploit del franchise Danganronpa, tutte le avventure investigative che porteranno la firma di Kazutaka Kodaka e del suo team saranno gravate da un fardello notevole: quello di raccoglierne il testimone e di riuscire, magari, a superarne le vette di eccentricità e di genialità. Master Detective Rain Code ci riesce solo in parte, allargando gli orizzonti dei prodotti firmati TooKyo Games con uno scenario affascinante liberamente esplorabile e una storia matura e profonda, con risvolti decisamente oscuri, che riesce a tenere alta la concentrazione del giocatore anche quando il ritmo complessivo rallenta. L'equilibrio da ricercare tra linearità e libertà è sempre molto delicato, soprattutto in un prodotto in cui la narrativa ed i personaggi sono così centrali, ma il team di sviluppo è riuscito per gran parte nel suo intento, considerando che stiamo parlando di una nuova proprietà intellettuale. Un'avventura di certo spassosa, più accomodante, e forse anche per questo meno affascinante, della trilogia che aveva nel diabolico Monokuma la sua mascotte.

“Unrealized potential” feels like the story of AEW: Fight Forever as a whole. So much of it feels like a very good start, going full gear with bouncy animations, the quick pace of the action, and fun and effective character design. But almost all of its good ideas are hampered by bugs and opaque or outright useless systems. Its big single-player mode is poorly written and, though it's a relative breeze to complete and full of branching options, it’s all out of good ways to point you to them. There’s a strong foundation to bet double or nothing on in a sequel down the road, and I think there's still fun to be had here with like-minded friends who are content with casually beating each other up, but this is no wrestling game revolution.

We recognize that Synapse tried hard but may have accomplished little but style. However, we must also acknowledge that Synapse may not be a game for everyone. It is brilliantly inspired and tries to combine successful mechanics that, in theory, would have resulted in a compelling game. If you are up for a tough challenge and are into Soulslike games, Synapse may be worth playing. For an FPS player, the game should last around 12 hours, and that is 12 hours of a solid VR game; it is immersive, has interesting abilities, intriguing gameplay choices and a great atmosphere. But that is the right amount of time before everything becomes mundane and repetitive. So suppose you are like me and must spend several hours grinding, doing and seeing more of the same to go past the first few areas of Synapse. In that case, I suggest you skip it altogether and find a more approachable and less repetitive game to play.

L’uscita sul mercato di The Legend of Heroes Trails Into Reverie è prevista per il 7 luglio 2023 per i formati PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, Nintendo Switch e Personal Computer, tramite Steam. Una trama complicatissima che mescola gli archi narrativi di Crossbell ed Erebonia, con quest principale ed alcune quest secondarie interessanti. Combattimenti a turni complessi e realizzati allo stato dell’arte, grazie al motore Phyre Engine. Tre personaggi diversi uniti da un unico destino le cui gesta, narrate in maniera superba, sanno toccare davvero le corde dei sentimenti, in uno dei migliori capitoli della serie.

A fantastic send-off for a cast of characters I’ve become attached to, Trails into Reverie is a superb RPG with the most refined battle system to date and an engaging story you’ll be sad to see finally come to an end.

A feature-rich (at times astonishingly so) package of content — major, minor and entirely optional alike — Nihon Falcom have proven once again with Trails into Reverie why they remain one of the best and most renowned RPG developers still going. The story of Reverie may find itself branching out into three routes, but that holds no sway when it comes to presenting a familiar brand of quality. In a narrative that’s as much intriguing in its larger story beats as it is surprisingly effective in its accompanying smaller ones alongside. Add to this a combat system that’s still as fun to work out and tinker with, a wealth of customization potential and generally the kind of design philosophy that’s both ridiculously over-the-top yet thoughtfully engaging all the same, The Legend of Heroes: Trails into Reverie serves as both a culmination as much a proud celebration of the series’ grand accomplishments.

The Legend of Heroes: Trails into Reverie is one of the best games in this almost 20-year-old franchise and a great RPG. While its overall story is a bit of a retread, its amazing pacing, and in-depth battle system, make it a satisfying conclusion to the Crossbell and Cold Steel arcs. It also makes good use of its admittedly way-too-large cast of playable characters. That said, newcomers who are unfamiliar with the series will certainly be lost without having played the previous games. However, it's well worth doing so in order to experience one of the best RPG universes ever crafted.

The Legend of Heroes: Trails into Reverie heeft zeker een interessant verhaal, dat door het wisselen tussen de drie hoofdpersonen nog eens een extra dimensie krijgt. Maar uiteindelijk draait dit deel om fanservice, dat vooral zichtbaar is in de True Reverie Corridor en al diens vermakelijke activiteiten.

The Lara Croft Collection sees two excellent Tomb Raider spin-offs hit Nintendo Switch in an excellent package that offers up plenty of puzzles, slick combat, and fun local co-op action. There are a few performance issues in Lara Croft and the Temple of Osiris, and the lack of online co-op for both games is a shame, but overall this is still a great double pack that we recommend picking up. They may initially look like watered-down takes on the main franchise but make no mistake, these are two of Lara's very best outings.
